Rasika Dugal shares her unpleasant Delhi experience  – Bollywood News

Actress Rasika Dugal recently appeared as an IPS officer Neeti Singh in the season 2 of Netflix thriller show ‘Delhi Crime’. As the name suggests, the show is set against the backdrop of Delhi and since Rasika stayed in Delhi during her graduation years, she shared some of her experiences in recent interviews.

Recalling how unsafe she used to feel on the streets of Delhi, Rasika told Vice India, “Experiences in Delhi on the roads were not fun at all. I don’t think as people going to college we needed to feel so much fear. Every time I walked from my PG to my college, I was petrified because there was a patch of the road which was sunsaan (deserted). Ek taraf there was nalah ek taraf there was a school which used to shut by 3 p.m. or 4 p.m. So if you cross that patch, you have to tell 10 people that you are crossing it, just so if you did not arrive on the other side of it somebody would check.”

In an another interview with Variety, Rasika talked about the class divide which is so prevalent in Delhi. She said, “It is really about the vulnerability of senior citizens and also the very stark class divide, which is very apparent in a city like Delhi. Somehow, visually in Delhi, it’s much more around than anywhere else. And the season really talks about that very sensitively and carefully and also throws light on the way we treat marginalized communities.”
